It&#39;s not enough to simply play it down the middle with no bias either way as most legitimate mainstream media tries to do, oh no. If you don&#39;t actively cheerlead for the Republican agenda, you&#39;re classifed as &quot;liberal&quot;. This is a relatively new phenominum and began in the 80&#39;s with Limbaugh&#39;s radio show and the vilification of government as personified by Ronald Reagan. It&#39;s only gotten worse in recent years.<br /><br />In any event, this article should provide another nail in the coffin of the &quot;liberal media&quot; myth, but as you can see from these comments, once brainwashed, always brainwashed. It&#39;s fascinating how committed some people can be to completely false dogma as long as it&#39;s reinforced in every single aspect of their lives that they&#39;ve been told they can trust.<br /><br />Want to know why this country&#39;s political system is so dysfunctional?

Why? Because everyone under the sun knows they, and many others, are slanted towards the left.<br /><br />As someone with a communications/journalism degree, most (if not all) of my professors were staunch liberals. I don&#39;t want a tilt towards ANY side...I just want the facts and let me make up my own mind.Tvanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01327738588293379222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536140049505603887.post-51454352555272441402011-10-27T16:24:51.660-04:002011-10-27T16:24:51.660-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Skippyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04688165669248150791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536140049505603887.post-64192800204291163282011-10-27T16:24:15.355-04:002011-10-27T16:24:15.355-04:00Nothing like going to the NY Times for &quot;proof...Nothing like going to the NY Times for &quot;proof&quot; there is no liberal bias.Skippyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04688165669248150791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536140049505603887.post-59916074494213452062011-10-27T16:11:56.810-04:002011-10-27T16:11:56.810-04:00What does that have to do with the Observer&#39;s ...What does that have to do with the Observer&#39;s incessant vilification of the GOP and endorsing every tax and spend Democrat in Mecklenburg County?<br /><br />30 years ago I weighed 50 pounds less so what&#39;s your point?Wiley Coyotehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16966764080565903720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536140049505603887.post-89926005930766751372011-10-27T16:08:41.021-04:002011-10-27T16:08:41.021-04:00Nice try Peter.

Then they cherry pick one race...the Presidential...and hope we will extrapolate from this that the media doesn&#39;t have a liberal bias. Hmm.<br /><br />Many studies and books have been have been writen on the overwhelmingly liberal bias of the mainstream media. I didn&#39;t even think it was seriously questioned anymore.Even the liberals I know don&#39;t dispute it ...they just laugh about it.<br /><br />But again...good job providing that counterbalance to the rest of the editorial staff we were counting on.kantstanzyahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09234428527135811367noreply@blogger.com
